If it makes you feel better when we get a call the MDC alert tone is the Emergency! tones

It was the alert tone on Active 911 for my last agency and it’s the sound that plays in the county dispatch center if someone pushes the orange emergency button.
I watched a couple episodes the other night. It’s still more true to life than anything else.

Right after the Love Boat, but well before That’s Incredible. Squeeze some CHiPS somewhere in there as well...

Tonight I stopped at my favorite park after work and watched the waning gibbous moon shine on a frozen pond for a while. Beautiful.

The timing of your post in regards to what was being posted directly before was PERFECT.
Think its about time I go and spend the money on the FP-C. Didnt do me any good at my employer since they accepted what I had. Trying to go elsewhere though, so it may be due to add it to the resume. Good thing December will be a healthy month for extra pay.

When the new hire (first call ever) gets narcotic OD Del Taco chicken burrito vomit all over his leg. Welcome to the suck bro.
You just missed a shot at a heavy testing discount to be a guinea pig for a new question bank.
I was trying really hard to wait till all episodes dropped so I didnt get stuck with a cliffhanger like that. See how well that worked.
Similar note, I dont pay for streaming services to get an episode a week, really annoying. My two favorite streaming shows do this (Mandalorian and the Boys).

I got a COVID swab at 2 yesterday afternoon and had PCR results in my online health portal in under 7 hours. Amazingly fast results.
Why aren’t we testing all of our people this way?
and I was negative, btw.

Bit of a folk music kick lately. Simon & Garfunkel, Croce, Neil Young, Cat Stevens.

Just found out the owner of our rental townhouse is looking to sell, which puts me in the unenviable position of rental house hunting. Having an 85 pound labradog complicates the search.
Zero fun times ahead.

I wish my 9-5 operated this way. My real job is in building inspection in a municipality with around 2500 employees. My department of ~125 was mostly on quarantine for 2 weeks due to 2-3 positives among the staff. We received over $100 million in federal grants for covid expenses, have a EMS staff and ER doc at our disposal on staff, and haven't thought to arrange for rapid testing in instances like this... shut down the whole floor, test everyone, then order isolation or quarantine. Alas, the talking heads at the top don't believe anyone else has any worthy ideas, and doing anything for us doesn't look as good as a sexy photo op of giving out masks and sanitizer to some random shopkeepers.

No. This was at my PCPs office. Sent out to whoever does their testing.
